8:10 "Ditching your body armour".
*A proposal for upgrading the standard loadout of RDA Troopers, greatly increasing survivability for minimal cost*
With the low gravity on Pandora, ground units are capable of carrying _a far heavier loadout_ that is standard for jungle warfare on Earth, and the opposition is different as well, this has not been taken into account.
First of all flexible bullet proof armour should be replaced with rigid armour that can stop a ballista bolt, not a bullet.
[In the meanwhile carrier plates made of metal can be used until the new armour arrives to reinforce current gear]. At the very least providing full torso coverage - the Colonial Marines have a acceptable design (and if you could get any M56 smartguns that would be great!).
And instead of a face mask a full helmet is advised. Face mask are to easy to damage, or get slipped _or pulled_ off. A rigid helmet with an integral mask would allow a lot of useful upgrades to be built in and would protect against concussion and hostile removal of, or damage, to breathing apparatus.
A helmet can include a full Heads Up Display, which along with image intensification, thermal vision and vision enhancement can greatly increase situational awareness, counteracting the advantage the natives have in sensory perception.
This can also help with unit manovering as friendlies can use IFF signals that would be risky against a technological foe that could detect them.
We could move without talking out loud, only using radio chatter and beaming our location to other squad members, without fear of signal interception.
And we could relay any sightings to teammates HUDS.
There are other advantages to a full helmet, inbuilt water and food paste feed while in field, a simple AI advisor on local wildlife, with action warnings.
And a inbuilt cooling system, this would greatly improve trooper comfort and in-field endurance.
Cooling could also be added to torso armour at minimal cost.
For slightly more initial investment, a full body suit of articulated body armour could be provided, further reducing casualty rates and increasing lethality of armed personnel.
As for firearms, I recommend heavier caliber weapondry as the wildlife is tougher than standard enemy forces.
And portable anti armour weapons would be useful against some of the larger fauna that can shrugg off GAU 30mm rounds from a AMP walker.
As for the AMP Walker, a immediate upgrade is needed to the canopy, a weak point know to the natives that they can peirce with their arrows.
A simple grate can be welded on to hinder arrows getting through as a stop gap measure. But heavy reinforcing of the canopy is required.
There is a VR upgrade package available, which can be tied into a enhanced sensor array. It comes with armoured sensors in a distributed array.
That with a retractable blast shield on the canopy should make the AMP impervious to Na'vi attack.
Although shoulder mounted armour peircing rockets should be considered in the light of the durability of the Hammerhead Titanothere.
I have purchased for myself a full rigid armour suit for myself with cooling, inbuilt life support and a built in sensor visor.
But troops should not be expected to provide their own gear in this situation, I hope you consider my proposal, and also take into account that I am the only uninjured survivor of the Candalie basin incident, I credit that to my gear that I chose personally.
Now about combat drones … …
casbott except one problem. Pandora has high gravity. Sorry. That’s why everything is so big and muscular.
@@kregadeth5562 1:43 literally destroys your response. Did you even watch the video?
It doesn’t matter what he says in the video this guy is fucked up . He literally thinks the humans were the good guys. The movie mentions that the planet has higher gravity. I could be wrong but I’m probably not.
Nah you're definitely wrong. And kind of look like a total incompetent. It says low gravity, and even if it didn't, we know it has low gravity because: high gravity=smaller more dense organisms. You can't have massive organisms on high gravity. They will buckle in on themselves weight wise. Do some research. Also: the humanity first thing is part of a long running bit on this channel. If you're taking him seriously about it then youre dumb, but I could have guessed that already
niklai117 you know what the best part is? We are arguing about a sci-fi movie. But thanks for the entertainment. I’ve been mighty bored. I’m sure there was a bunch of other scientifically accurate stuff in this movie as well. Being a sci fi movie and all. But whatever I’m just wasting your time for fun

How to survive the Second World War(Wolfenstein: The New Order)
Good idea.
Just do it like my grandfather: Once you get your first notice that they want to recruit you take your bike to escape to eastern Tyrol and then hide there until the war is over.
Hiding on a farm is generally a good idea, as its not as noticeable to outsiders, when a farm has one extra mouth to feed, whilst it could be easier noticed, when a regular family hides you
First: be German
Instead of the *RDA,* they should have awarded the mining contract to *Weyland-Yutani,* and used the Colonial Marines for security.
Maybe even Dr Grace might've not turned traitor if given marine assistance. She did once suggest nuclear bombardment from orbit as a way to deal with hostile Alien lifeforms …

@@aksalaheddine78 The M65 is certainly a good choice, I’ll take the M41A pulse rifle for its high capacity, higher rate of fire and the grenade launcher
_Planet has less mass then earth_
Oh cool, that means we humans, used to a higher gravity enviroment should be stronger in comparison
_Navi yeeting some human out of a ship_
...or not
But it while also having a denser atmosphere, so the navi wouldn't be as fast, and thus smaller and lighter humans would be better, being big can be a disadvantage, Specially in front of proyectile weaponry
Lmao! That is true!
Lol
The Na vi have more experiance of Pandora than humans.
The movie is a joke lol
1. Attach rockets to a largish asteroid.
2. Profit.
I'd say that depends on if the atmospheric engines on their shuttles can handle debris in the air or not. If they can, by all means, commence exterminatus on the filthy xenos!

@@AccessDenied20078 Don't forget about swarms of hunter killer drones to clean up everything else and to keep wildlife away the areas of operation.
@@krimverse5903 there are hundreds of ways to beat down a primitive race. In avatar they won a battle and movie acted as they won the war. In reality, they just pushed back the vanguard.
@Sina Zarin round two is coming and they're not going to survive
Metal armor would stop Navi arrows because of its hardness- it'll hurt like hell, but a stone arrow won't actually penetrate hardened steel- the arrow shaft will shatter on impact.
For guarding convoys, gun trucks are a must- fast, maneuverable, and sporting .50 cal HMGs and bigger. The mech suits are useful, but slower than wheeled vehicles (plus require less maintenance). Mix and match gun platforms as appropriate.
When on foot, use microterrain and camouflage. This isn't a SWAT team operating in an urban zone. Small dismounted infantrymen can meld into the environment very easily.
Yes, napalm and white phosphorous would be good at destroying vegetation. Agent Orange is also an option.
Any caliber that can't kill wildlife on the planet is to be left behind. Individual arms should be able to reliably kill Navi at a minimum, and larger guns should be able to kill megafauna.
Do not attempt hand-to-hand combat. If they're close, that's what full-auto is for. Use semi-auto for mid-range combat. Do not forget to issue/cache spare ammo.
Carry entrenching tools. If there is a sustained battle, digging in will provide protection and make grazing fire easy.
Make sure every section/squad carries at least 1 crew-served weapon. Machine guns are better at producing casualties than assault rifles, and can be used for both direct- and indirect-fire. The mortars should follow a ratio of one per squad/section.
No patrol goes out if it cannot be supported by fire. Artillery is the king of battle, and airburst shells will kill Navi, dire horses, and fliers alike.
Rah 0331 would love a full line of calvary lined up with our crew served 240B or even 50 cals. Multiple envolping fields of fire and there toast except those rhinos
Lol just get the Ride of the Valkyries pilots and watch.
Might I suggest some modifications to to air vehicles? The aircraft used, need more armor plating, and stronger windows, you don’t need to be stealthy when your enemy are basically 12 foot tall primitive aliens. They also need less missiles more machine guns. Again, you aren’t fighting other jets, your fighting dragons and other flying animals. Last mod. MAKE THE ROTOR BLADES STRONG ENOUGH TO SUSTAIN A BALLISTA HIT!
I think this shall go well next time we get our revenge.
@@aksalaheddine78 I would probably replace the missiles with rockets carrying tons of metals to create as much shrapnel as possible, so probably fragmentation
But you missed one key aspect.
That would all make too much sense. The 40k-esque idea of just throwing people at the problem until it goes away is a way that hasn’t worked for so long that they simple *can’t not* use it 😆
16 km? Nearly as tall as two Mount Everests? You're killing me.
Olympus Mons on Mars is 26 km high
Yeah, I noticed that...
@@victorbruant389 that's cheating they don't have a sea level
I believe it's a running gag on GF between the American crew (Alan and American Ben) and British Ben, who will use proper metric but butcher the imperial.
I'm also surprised that high-caliber machine guns and artillery weren't employed in large numbers. The bloody WWI armies could have decimated the Na'vi.
They were not actual military they were private security they weren't allowed have proper equipment
@@jasonskeans3327 because the last chance for humanities's resource crisis is a pmc on the pocket of a fuel corp, not a un backed federation style army securing the operations
@@killian9314 also if they had been smart they wouldn't have needed to attack there was plenty of other sites they could have mined first
@@jasonskeans3327 or they could have use tunneling, not only do they not need to set up an overground site, but can have a exclisovely navi free route directly to harvest it
@@killian9314 exactly
Remember, if you have to bomb a fixed location (that has electronic interference) with a modified shuttle, *descend from the upper atmosphere directly above the target* while stationary. And release the payload _as soon as_ you're low enough to guarantee a hit, don't drop any lower than necessary, it might bring you within range of the local aerial wildlife.
Perhaps even test drop with markers first, and if they score a hit … bombs away. Otherwise adjust to target and test again, if you're still in the stratosphere the natives can do nothing to stop you.
Don't fly down at a level they can engage you at, and if by any chance they have help from human traitors expect deceptive tactics with the full knowledge of the RDA's capabilities.
And watch those corners on the _flying mountains._
Oh yes. High altitude bombers ftw
@Oskar Schewak They will get corp's ass back on Earth in a deep problem, though. Conventional bombs won't.
@Oskar Schewak Just saying, that nukes are out of question here (also because they can't be made on site and importing them from Earth is not an option), as well as orbital strikes (outlawed by Earth). High-altitude bombardment is a fair game, though.
@Oskar Schewak You didn't understand me. By "fair game", I've meant "no repercussions for the corporation back on Earth, so the flights of ISVs remain stable and you'll keep the chance to get back home".
@Oskar Schewak Unfortunately, not quite. Hence playing safe and according to regulations. Even under them, you can still do quite a lot of stuff.

RDA SpecOps: Confused Screaming.
Sly marbo: aaaaaahhh!
Humans have the tech to remotely control an avatar from miles and miles away. They have the ability for machines to ape their movements. And no one thought mating the avatar control system with Amp suits and/or other combat robots was a good idea? Why risk your human resources? Turtle up behind your heavily fortified operations base and let the remotely controlled robots be at risk.
im pretty sure the problem was that a war was never meant to happen. Hells gate didn't have the infrastructure for the war.
Didnt they say there was a problem with electrical devices near the Na’vi areas though
4:50, imagine if the na'vi were actually 16km tall, the humans would've been f***ed
I'd watch that movie :D
Atack on Navi
and 10 kg in weight though.
They'd be easier to spot, so easier to kill... meaning orbital bombardment would be able to exterminate them easily.
@@libertyprime1614 made out of styrofoam :D
Considering that the RDA already had satellites over Pandora and of course this is all in the future I would say it is very possible that the RDA could had just used long range smart munitions and bomb the hell out of the tree of souls if they wanted to
im pretty sure a moderate orbital bomb would have done the job perfectly.
"The Navi can grow up to 12 feet or 16 kilometers in height, and can easily weigh over 500 pounds or 10 kilograms."
This is the quality content I came for
Lol, I know you said this is how you should act if you're a coward, but most of this just sounds like rational, tactical behavior that should be employed by all the combat personnel.
Once again:Take off and nuke the entire site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure. Game over man, game over! P.S.: The Alpha Centauri system consists of three stars, Proxima Centauri is the closest.

@@tspoon772 Nothing
@@yourstruly4817 using nukes could maybe destroy all resources you want to get so it's not the best idea maybe
Nukes are over kill. High altitude bombers are where it’s at
Well...hmm if you have to use a nuke. Use a Davy Crockett style of nuke instead.
i made the assumption that unobtanium was fossilized remains of the navi and that was why there was such a big deposit of it below their cities.
Maybe modify some of the AMPs into purpose built combat walkers with heavy flamethrowers and chain-guns built into the arms...also forget the glass and use solid armored cockpits with external cameras like a modern main battle tank. Also some morter launchers would be helpful.
The emperor approves this message.
Suggestion: How to Survive the Lighthouse War (Ace Combat)
A radical and surely expensive option, create a army of Navi avatars and have Marines control them. Clearly they could also create custom human equipment for the avatar Marines. Simply just a more militarized Avatar program.
I mean hell if there's some more "forward" thinkin Navi among the millions maybe pull a unconventional warfare move commonly employed by many special forces
Man your foresight is 20/20
@@felixsubakti6907 it just made sense
Bro just predicted Recombinants
@Not cool it just made the most sense from a strategic perspective, it's how empires have operated throughout history, aside from all the big military engagements behind the scenes there's always the use of espionage, covert actions, and unconventional warfare.
Col. Quaritch honestly made his biggest mistake deploying ground forces at all when this was mainly an air campaign.
Not much the Navi-GF could have done against the Sampsons & Scorpions if at all. Leaving the Secops-GF at Hells gate to fend off any attacks should the bombing fail.
The Secops-GF were purely a mop up force that was particularly not needed in this operation. Could have also sent them after the fact while still keeping them at base for defense
If you kill the plants the Navis can no longer use the giant leaves to cushion their falls. Then set fire to all the floating mountains and burn the twigs, along with high altitude bombing on every Sky Tree every night to give them no rest. Ground troops should carry portable shields to deploy as cover to shoot from so they are protected from arrows.
Let the seas boil, let the stars fall. Though it takes the last drop of my blood, I will see this world freed once more. And if I cannot save it from your tyranny, then let Pandora BURN!"

How to survive the Battle of Pandora? Stay on Earth and leave the heroism to the people with plot-armour.
No, people with plot-armour are almost always brain-washed and think, that they are some weird blue monkeys.
Snipe the damn psychic tree or something with railgun from the orbit and send in killer drone swarm.
And drop ground forces to clear up remaining xeno scums.
You can send in drone ground forces as well as aerial units, with an orbital bombardment, no nukes, but still gets the job done.
Lower gravity should have made the blue monkeys weaker than humans. Organisms grow bone density and strength due to the pressures of gravity. A creature from a higher-gravity world would be far more powerful on Earth. And since Pandora has less gravity than Earth, the humans should be stronger than the Na'vi.
Maybe they grew that way because of the extreme predatory life of the planet?
@@lancer737 Still, the predators there should be weaker than ours because all the animals there grew on a lower-gravity planet.

Adding to the Thought, put research into Militarizing the Avatar Project, not by using Na'Vi Bodies, but by adapting a "Chimera Soldier" that can Breathe the Air, and be operated by a soldier from the Safety of the Base. Having one as a "Leader trooper" would allow for co-ordinated attacks on the Na'Vi, as well as an Early Warning and Spotter unit.
If that is Not Possible, wear an ODST-style BDU. The armor doesn't weigh down the User, it actually provides a _Lot_ of protection (Halo 3 ODST has ODST 'Romeo' survive a Gravity Hammer Blade, which is made from a Tungsten Alloy, to the chestplate. Na'Vi Stone tipped arrows shouldn't stand a _Chance_ of Penetrating it.), and it comes with a Helmet that has a Built-In Scrubber unit and Air Reserve, while also providing an excellent field of view.
Adding to ODSTs, is to have HEVs that can be dropped from space or from a Valkyrie Shuttle high enough for the Na'Vi to be unable to counter them. It also means that the Drop Pods can either flatten any Na'Vi unlucky enough to be on the LZ, and for those that aren't? They'll get a HEV Door flying into their face and a barrage of either 7.62 Caseless Rounds straight to the chest, or 5.56 High-Velocity cased bullets to the head and neck.
And this is where we get to weapons. The M7(S) SMG is excellent for the ODST once they make their landing, as the Na'Vi would be at Close enough range to be unable to avoid the bullets, while the MA5B can easily shred their Carbon-Reinforced endoskeletons, as the MA5B's predecessor, the MA37's, only real Shortcomings had occurred when it was facing off against the Personal Energy shields of Elite and Brute Covenant Soldiers.
The Na'Vi lack such useful protection, so even if the MA37 is the only model availible to the Security forces, it would still be brutally effective in the hands of both them ahd the ODST, as their foes in the Na'Vi don't even have _body armor,_ relying entirely on their agility and reinforced bones.
And that isn't even getting to the M6H and M6H2 sidearms, packing _12_ 12.6mm Hi-Explosive rounds per magazine, a Holosight system in the case of the M6H2, being deadly accurate as well as Super Compact, considering the Firepower and Caliber of the bullets they pack, forget ODSTs, give the Ground Troops these mighty Pistols as a Fallback, and You'll be popping Na'Vi heads with these! They're made to blow open body armor and the Squishy innards underneath! What chance does an unarmored Na'Vi gonna have?!
And don't even get me started on Snipers! All they would have needed was the 99C Series anti-material rifles, and the Navi would have retreated a _lot_ sooner, since during the Battle of Pandora, there was a Distinctive lack of a Sniper among the soldiers! That is literally a Big Mistake to miss out on! _WWI tactics_ had snipers hiding in Trees, underbrush and even in Trenches or towers, in places where they had a Decent Sight Picture, but out of sight of the Enemy!
Note the Navi Tactics used! They didn't play their strengths on the ground battle. They didn't have 'Rangers' in the trees, they just charged with horses!
The Security forces should have had Snipers hiding among the Trees, under rocks, or even Hitching a Ride on an AMP Suit to allow for full protection and field of view! In WWI, prior to the arrival of tanks, soldiers _feared_ the Sniper, even going as far as to call _Artillery Strikes_ on possible sniper positions! The Na'Vi don't have Artillery, so Snipers would get their hyper-lethal "Play times".
Please do this with more movies like fantasy and medieval movies too

Plz do a sequel to this video called "How to Survive the Battle of Pandora's Oceans" if you are a recom or a Cet-Ops naval infantryman fighting for the RDA's side against the Sully family and their allies the Metkayina Clan.
why didn't orbital bombardment come into play?
That shuttle is my favorite thing in the whole movie.
This got a lot longer than I anticipated, oops.
something of note, in jungle warfare, you could have 500 men guarding a a mile wide section of ridgeline, with heavy machine guns, dug in bunkers, mortars, air support on standby for rapid defensive bombardments, all the bells and whistles, and the jungle will cut your sight line down to maybe 100 yards, tops. aerial drones would be nearly useless, even with thermal cameras the canopy will block all sight to the jungle floor for any meaningful view. that being said, your 500 men on the ridgeline could be all ready for a fight, and the enemy would march 200 yards past the position, and you'd never see them, hear them, maybe you could smell them, but smell is a pretty hard thing to aim a machine gun at. then, the next day, the enemy has flanked your defensive line by taking a pass through the ridgeline a half mile down from you, and is now assaulting you from the side where all your supply and support positions are.
the Navi are also adept climbers, and stealthy, meaning they would easily know your positions before you knew theirs. out on patrol, this problem would be exacerbated to an extreme, with the Navi almost always controlling the when and where an engagement would happen. there is a saving grace to this though, the thing of paramount importance to a successful patrol skirmish is putting more ordinance on the other guy in the opening flurry. the navi would get the first shot probably 7 times out of 10, but the RDA would fire a hundred rounds for every single arrow fired at them, along with grenades, autocannon shells, etc. so while the initial hit would probably see the RDA dropping like flies while they figured out where they were being engaged from, any navi that was seen would quickly go from a 10 foot blue ballista to a 10 foot blue swiss cheese.
On weaponry, while many navi arrows are tipped with poison, any arrow wound that isn't poison(or a critical organ/artery) is easily treated by RDA medical tech, while even a small caliber wound from the PDW/SMG's the RDA carries could be a death sentence to the low tech Navi. once you get into the full power rounds from the LMG's and door guns(.50 cal) on the sampson transports, it goes from a few little holes to one small hole in the impact and a dinner plate sized exit wound that probably blew out several vital organs. Expanding on that thought the Navi are not signatory to the Hague Convention, or Geneva, meaning CBRN weapons, expanding, exploding, incendiary, or poison bullets, machine guns with a caliber larger than 0.5" are not prohibited against them. so now that full power .30 caliber machinegun can fire rounds with a gram of explosive that will go off inside the target, spraying razor sharp shrapnel through whatever it hits. any dying or surrendered navi can be summarily executed, or tortured for information, they have no rights or status as a prisoner of war, there will be no expectations of "humane" treatment in the form of medical care or food rationing to captured civilian population centers. This totally erases any hesitation or reasons for not using massed strategic bombardment by air assets or heavy ground based artillery like Rockets or howitzers, or indeed, in this situation, orbital kinetic weapons such as smaller asteroids and "rods from god" so long as their use doesn't endanger friendly positions.
Going on the lore from the Avatar game, there are four mainline weapon types used by the standard RDA grunt, the SMG, of which several models in various calibers are readily available. they make excellent CQB weapons due to tremendous fire rates. there are handguns, which I assume there are magnum revolvers AND autoloading designs similar to a Glock or 1911, Then of course the venerable assault rifle, again, many variations are offered, with several calibers and fire rates, but all are capable of automatic fire with massive magazine capacity, probably the best choice for general purpose usage. my favorite, is the battle rifles, with most being semi-automatic or burst firing, with high power rifle rounds akin to a 7.62x51/.303 British. these rifles would probably be the favorite of any forces on defensive duty, as the accuracy and power would put down most navi in one or two hits. there are also grenade launchers, Light machine guns, flame throwers, combat shotguns, undermounted grenade launchers/shotguns that can fit on most standard issue weapons. a flamethrower would be an excellent weapon to pair with patrol duty, as any Navi ambush or supply cache could rapidly be burned to death from quite a distance away. grenade launchers are also tremendously helpful in environments where you might run into soft targets at brutally close range, but also run the risk of pissing off alien tigers the size of elephants with their ability to fire dual purpose grenades (still have the shrapnel effect, but a different lay out of the charge gives them a light anti-armor ability as well) or even incendiaries for burning out stubborn resistance.
The navi on the other hand have what? spears, clubs, and a massive longbow that realistically still wouldn't be able to penetrate a wearable steel armor plate. when the low gravity is accounted for the advantage shifts even further in the RDA's favor, because now the previously bulky and heavy machinegun is only two or three pounds heavier than a standard rifle would be on earth, you can carry more bullets, full torso coverage steel plate armor to defeat the arrows, and the RDA troopers would still be just as if not more maneuverable than they would with their previous kit on earth. if you read this far damn. I get a bit ranty about how dumb the dances with blue aliens plotline ending is. any time a technologically superior foe faces a primitive opponent, the primitives get their shit thoroughly and repeatedly kicked in until they surrender or die.
I need to figure out what the national stock number is for plot armor so I can pick some up from supply
What was that scene with the helmet cam footage can't find it
Bro the stuff that you casually say be funny as hell 😂😂😂
Easy, the Valkyrie was an orbital shuttle capable of reaching the Venture star on its own power. Just take the bomb and drop it from above the banshees maximum flight altitude.
I forget was their ever a reasoned why there were floating mountains and stuff? Was that due to the super rock thing or was it some thing else?
Super rock presumably
step one:
use your shuttle to go to space.
Step two:
reenter above target area.
step three:
divebomb em.
The Yuuzhan Vong vs the Star Trek galaxy Post Dominion war about 5-10 year after DS9.
The Vong were only in legends so they win. Vong ships have destroyed Star Destroyers, and Star Destroyers in legends have tanked supernovas. Legends is bullshit OP
@@caedes4367
Star Destroyers did not tank supernovas in Star Wars EU. I have zero understanding where you got that information from and why.
They not only tanked it, they then proceeded to fight a battlle right after lol, but isd feats are ridicoulisly inconsistent tbf . Also this is an old ass comment lmao@@thorshammer7883
4:48 16 km? 10kg?
Only because of betrayers, human loses wars.
All those measurements seem completely legit!
This is my favorite Sci Fi movie of all time.
I will be disappointed if the entrance of the human military isn't immediately preceded by a large scale orbital bombardment of all major navi settlements. Navi 2: extermination (subtext): the time for tolerance is over.
I like how they use m60’s on pandora even though it way in the future
4:48 16 Kilometers?
What to do to Survive
Try to Convince your commander to not fly under the Flying mountain exposing themselves and not needlessly send Troops to the Forest where they can't have air support and are Vulnerable against an Enemy that knows the territory and can use the Predators
Their is no alternate reality that in avatar 2 humans come back and nuke the blue lanky monkeys to dust.
what is that poster in the back round?
Send in Mobile Infantry from Starship Troopers, they throw hoards of troops way better then the RDA.
Suggestion:
How to survive the battle of new mombasa
(Halo 3:ODST)
Did he say that the back were "12 feet or 16 kilometers in height"? I'm american so I'm a little bad with the metric system, shouldn't that be 16 meters?
Easy call in the empire and do some orbital bombardment
I have plans to retake Pandora for the humans, humanity first
I will join your cause to save humanity.
I never got the effectiveness of the Navi arrows. Unless the RDA only wears soft body armor it shouldn’t go through. I mena yeah you’ll get some broken ribs but it shouldn’t penetrate hard body armor.
”You don’t mount a horse before mount a horse”
No body armor can stop a HVAPS. (high velocity armor penetrating spear) Better just not to get hit.
Plantary shields = no problem XD
Jake doomed the Navi pretty much. If Unobtainium is really that important to humanity. Then about 2 decades later a whole fking armada is going to decent from orbit. Human when desperate will go to any length just to get what they want.
4:48 I think your a bit off
Remember Rods from God. The light pole long of metal droped from space to generate enough kenetic energy to a MOAB or small nuclear bomb without the nuclear fallout... why not that?
4:39 almost died laughing.
Well if this is gonna be a new thing, You’re gonna have to do “How to survive: The Battle/Fall Of Reach” from Halo..
Right..?
How to survive reach don't be on reach
